On the first assessment Rita scored 58 points. For each next assessment the score increases by 5: 58 + 6 = 63, 63 + 5 = 68, 68 + 5 = 72, etc. So a1 = 58, d = 5. This is an example of the arythmetic sequence: a n = a 1 + ( n - 1 ) * d ; We have to find n such that: 58 + ( n - 1 ) * 5 > 85. ( n - 1 ) * 5 > 27; n - 1 > 5.4; n > 6.4. Finally: n = 7. Answer: Rita will be scoring above 85 on the 7th and each next assessment.
